Historie

Lake Brienz was once the eastern part of Wendelsee. Alluvium deposited by the Lütschine separated the lakes and created the Interlaken plain.

  2. 1146–1439Interlaken convent acquired the lake and its surroundings.
  3. 1434The convent built a weir in the Aar to power a mill. It blocked fish passage, raised the lake level and turned the Brienz plain into marshland.
